Please do not remove the {{interlanguage link}}s in the pockets table. These contain links to fully-developed article on fr-wiki, that could be used to develop new articles at en-wiki. Normally, these pocket links would be red since there are no articles for these pocket topics, such as "La Rochelle pocket". But, note that La Rochelle pocket is blue; not because there's an article, but because of a redirect, and it points back here. These redirects are also used in other articles. Since they point back here, that means they are circular, normally a cause for removal from an article, but not in this case. See MOS:CIRCULAR for a more detailed explanation, but basically since these links are expandable into new articles (and are so marked by the appropriate redirect category at the redirect itself), they are exempt from removal for this reason.
